The polynomial is 3x^2 + 10x + 3 and the two factors are (3x+1) and (x+3), because
(3x+1)(x+3) = 3x^2 +9x + x +3 = 3x^2 + 10x +3
For this case we have the following system of equations:
From the first equation we clear "x":
We substitute in the second equation:
We apply distributive property:
We add similar terms:
We add 65 to both sides:
We divide between 22 on both sides:
We look for the value of the variable "x":
Thus, the solution of the system is:

Solution:
<u>Note that:</u>
- Abby's dog: 1.5 cups of food
- Braxton's dog: 4.5 cups of food
Looking at the information we got, we can say that Braxton's dog eats more. Let's put them into ratio form (Braxton's dog:Abby's dog)
- => (Braxton's dog:Abby's dog) = 4.5:1.5
<u>Now, put them into fractions.</u>
We can conclude that Braxton's dog eats 3 times more food.
330 miles / 5.5 hours
= 54.54 miles/hour.
Glad I could help!
Decrease just means getting less.
